I know. The Hispanic population was actually part of the reason I chose this neighborhood, I love the "melting pot" feel it has.

I am not directly pinning the crimes to the immigrants but crime rose when they arrived and the ratio of surname origina on the list shifted.

Don't ignore the rest of what I said, though. What do you think happens when competition for low-wage jobs grows exponentially over night?
